Elevating Elmwood, the Bishop Arts for locals

The esoteric neighborhood poised to become the locals-only Bishop Arts. The year Elmwood began to take shape, building in Dallas was at an all-time high. Frank Jester took a risk in 1925 when he began developing a former dairy, Tennessee Farm, just south of what was then considered the southern border of Oak Cliff.

You may already know that Elmwood is a lovely and already great community in Oak Cliff, an area defined roughly by the DART Red Line, Polk, Illinois and Hampton. It may not have gotten the kind of love heaped on Bishop Arts and points north, but it’s way more affordable.

Basically, if Joanna and Chip Gaines came to Dallas to do renovations, they would be licking their chops. Elmwood Park runs along a picturesque creek and is a great getaway from the hustle and bustle of downtown life despite being less than 10 miles away.
